Boom, Belgium — In what may become a turning point in the global pursuit of accountability, Belgian federal police have arrested and interrogated two Israeli soldiers credibly accused of war crimes in Gaza. The action came in response to an urgent legal complaint filed by the Hind Rajab Foundation and the Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) earlier this week.

The suspects were identified and arrested with a clear show of force at the Tomorrowland festival in Boom. After being taken into custody, they were formally interrogated and released. The Belgian Federal Prosecutor’s Office has confirmed that a criminal investigation is now underway.

that's the thing: they aren't, they weren't, they never were and won't be unless locking up genociders was in any way beneficial to the eurolibs. But it's not. They have no problem speedrunning convicting brown people for the pettiest of crimes with 10x harsher sentences than nationals in Europe though.

so the answer to the question is: yes, for morally devoid Western reasons.
